Tuesdays Selling Techniques with Dr. Drew
Quote of the Day
“I’ve never known anybody to achieve anything without overcoming adversity.”
—Lou Holtz
Thought for the Day
I was watching my son’s team play football last evening. The game, which was predicted to be a landslide victory for our opponent, proved different. For over 40 minutes our team held the lead and the opponent off balance. In the fourth quarter a call questioned by our coach led to his ejection. Within minutes, the boys lost their focus, their direction and their confidence. They lost but two points.
How many times during the day do you lose direction because you are not confident in your abilities? How many times do you second-guess decisions? Have you already lost your way? Life is a series of obstacles, you can choose to jump or circumnavigate the obstacles or let them block you.
Best Practice for the Day
1. Seek to learn from adversity, use them as educational fuel for the future.
2. Look in the mirror everyday and lay claim to your position in the world.
3. Learn the first sale is to yourself, you must have passion and conviction and believe in all that you do.
4. Change your state, from strong physiology comes a stronger psychology.
5. Seek a coach or mentor that can work with you individually to improve your condition.
6. The greatest (Lincoln, Disney, Ford, Edison, King et al) all failed at one time but never lost their confidence.
7. Self Confidence is your GPS to set your future and maintain direction.
